INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS (NO.2) (NORTHERN IRELAND) ORDER 1976 - SECT 53

53.(1) At any time after the expiration of the period specified in a
declaration under Article 52(6)(c) the trade union may refer to [the Agency]
in writing in such form as [the Agency] may require, a complaint (hereafter in
this Article and Article 54 referred to as a "further complaint") that the
employer has failed to disclose, or, as the case may be, to confirm in
writing, to representatives of that union information specified in the
declaration under Article 52(6)(a).

(2) On receipt of a further complaint [the Agency] shall refer the complaint
to the Industrial Court which shall proceed to hear and determine the
complaint and shall make a declaration stating whether it finds the complaint
well-founded, wholly or in part, and stating the reasons for its finding.

(3) On the hearing of a further complaint under this Article any person who
the Court considers has a proper interest in the complaint shall be entitled
to be heard by the Court, but a failure to accord a hearing to a person other
than the trade union and employer directly concerned shall not affect the
validity of any decision of the Court in those proceedings.

(4) If the Court finds the further complaint wholly or partly well-founded the
declaration shall specify the information in respect of which the Court finds
that the complaint is well-founded.
